The document introduces Lightning Out, a technology allowing Salesforce Lightning components to be used in various remote web containers, enabling integration with Visualforce pages. It outlines requirements, capabilities, and the process for setting up Lightning Out, including the need for CORS configuration and OAuth authentication. Additionally, it discusses the implications for user experience and compatibility in multi-platform environments.

- 5. Frameworks, Toolkits, and Libraries Lightning Out ? XXX
- 6. Lightning Components can now be used in nearly any remote web container Requirements • Valid Salesforce session ID (SID), for example from OAuth • Ability to modify the generated markup for the remote site Supports • Secure browser (HTTPS) • Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Lightning Components for Visualforce is powered by Lightning Out Availability • Lightning Components for Visualforce is GA in Winter ‘16 • Lightning Out is in pre-release in Winter ‘16, with plans to be GA in Spring ‘16 Overview Lightning Out
- 7. Lightning Out is the technology that allows Lightning Components to be used in Visualforce Differences & Considerations • Does not require CORS • Does not require a Connected App • Styles are from Aloha/VF and may differ from Salesforce1, Lightning Experience, or standalone apps Uses • Use components directly in Visualforce, integrated on the client via JavaScript, Lightning Events, and more • Migrate Visualforce pages and components to Lightning Components, while retaining use in Aloha • Build “hybrid” pages that leverage the best of Lightning Components and Visualforce Lightning Components for Visualforce (LC4VF) Lightning Out
- 8. Lightning Out can be up and running with very little effort: 1. Configure the remote site for CORS and a Connected App with Oauth 2. Create a Lightning App that extends ltng:outApp with dependencies for components 3. Include lightning.out.js in the remote site 4. Authenticate with Salesforce OAuth using the Consumer Key 5. Initialize Lightning App with $Lightning.use, passing in the OAuth token 6. Add the components to the remote site using $Lightning.createComponent Usage Lightning Out
- 9. Lightning Components can be included on the remote site with as few as three lines of code: Usage Lightning Out <script src="https://gs0.lightning.force.com/lightning/lightning.out.js"></script> $Lightning.use("ltngx:lotest", function() {}, oauth.instance_url, oauth.access_token); $Lightning.createComponent("ltngx:chatter", {}, "chatterFeed”, function(cmp) {});

- 12. Thank you
- 13. The following slides were getting too detailed…
- 14. Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) provides a safe mechanism for enabling access across domains. Lightning Out requires that an origin for the remote site to be added to the CORS whitelist using Setup. 1. Setup -> Administer -> Security Controls -> CORS -> New 2. Enter the origin URL pattern, e.g., https://cryptic-mesa-8923.herokuapp.com 3. Save Usage – Configure CORS Lightning Out
- 15. Lightning Out requires a valid SFDC SID, e.g., as obtained by OAUTH. A Connected App provides the 1. Setup -> Build-> Create -> Apps -> Connected Apps -> New 2. Enter the name, etc. and toggle Enable OAuth Settings 3. Enter the callback URL, e.g., https://cryptic-mesa-8923.herokuapp.com/oauthcallback 4. Select the OAuth Scopes, e.g., Full 5. Save Usage – Configure Connected Apps Lightning Out
- 16. The OAuth Consumer Key will be used on the client when authenticating. 1. Setup -> Build-> Create -> Apps -> Connected Apps -> appname -> Edit 2. Copy the Consumer Key Usage – Configure Connected Apps Lightning Out
- 17. Lightning Out is included in the remote site with a very small JavaScript file, lightning.out.js, served from the SFDC org that you are accessing. This should be included on any page that will include Lightning Components: Usage Lightning Out <script src="https://gs0.lightning.force.com/lightning/lightning.out.js"></script>
- 18. Lightning Out requires a valid SFDC SID, but it does not provide this capability OOTB in the early access release. A library such as force.js Usage Lightning Out <script src="https://gs0.lightning.force.com/lightning/lightning.out.js"></script>
- 19. Lightning Out Usage <script src="https://gs0.lightning.force.com/lightning/lightning.out.js"></script> $Lightning.use("ltngx:lotest", function() {}, oauth.instance_url, oauth.access_token); $Lightning.createComponent("ltngx:chatter", {}, "chatterFeed”, function(cmp) {});
